My New watch, Perrelet Turbine
I show you my new watch with caliber P181
Video to show the front rotor.
Congrats! Nice to see something different from the norm.
One of my favorite watches, definitely in my Top 10.
Welcome to the forum and congrats on your watch. Really, really, great piece.
That's wonderful! Brilliant purchase and looks undoubtedly enjoyable.
These things are mesmerising when the front rotor spins. Nice watch.
Chronically under rated brand. So wish there were more of them in the UK!
Good buy OP, and welcome :)
Beautiful watch. Even the box is very elegant!
that is great looking, i dont think i have sen one around these parts before, thanks for sharing.
Yep. when you have in your hands it looks a great watch, awesomly finished and i love most of its models like regulateur retrograde, moonphase, seacraft, etc. in their web site you can see all the models.
Very cool.
How do you make the inner turbine turn?
Was tempted by one of these recently. Very nice watch!
That's an awesome looking watch, something I also considered before, but realized my wrists were too thin for it, but really unique watch!! grats!
You've got to love Perrelet, they really do their own thing. Great watch.
That is fantastic. I cant make out whats going on with the crown, does it flip out at somehow?
How does the rotor spin so fast? Or does it just appear to do that?
I was thinking 'That's a handsome watch', then I saw video, and I thought 'That's a fantastic watch!' Congratulations! Lovely, and very different!
A fabulous watch, congratulations!
Nice little video here ... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEXElCwm6d0
Congrats on that, Perrelet do some really interesting and different looking watches.
Was really looking forward to seeing them all at Basel last week, but the stand was a real letdown. All they really put on show was different Turbines which were very nice, but limited. Really wanted to see their other bits.

My friend has one of these. DLC black titanium case, gray turbine dial. Almost impossible to read the time, but people just keep looking at his watch wondering what it is... Very cool.
Great watches, some cheeky designs too

I don't get it. It spins when the rotor winds?
The hidden crown and the handle to pull the crown and put it in set hour mode i think is another point that show the quality of the watch.
Hidden crown and handle
Hidden crown but handle in position to pull the crown and put it in position to set the hour
Crown and handle in position to set the time.
And a wristshot jejeje
With this colours its is very easy to read the time for me.
Hope in this video you can see that rotors move independently

nice watch. not the usual thing everybody buys.
I've fancied one of these for ages, but they aren't easy to come by. Most seem to sold in the US.
Regardless, spurred on by this thread I have just bought one that should hopefully arrive next week...
So clever my foot fell off.
I'd never heard of these until last week and now this pops up. Fascinating to watch.
Very nice looking watch, even more so in the flesh !
Congratulations
Fabulous watch. I have several Perrelet watches and have often been tempted to buy a Turbine. I am spurred on by this thread and all the Turbines I saw on display at their stand in Basel.
Now I must get one.
I was looking at them as well, but the color choice in almost all of the turbine range makes reading the time difficult, unless of course the turbine is rotating in which case you can forget to check the time and just look at the turbine
Following on from the Friday thread, where have you chaps who have bought them purchased them from?Originally Posted by TheFlyingBanana

UK stockists seem thin (no existent?), which really just seems to leave Chrono24 and a load of US sellers.
One UK stockist at the moment – Frosts Of London – but the current distributor is working on increasing the number of resellers for the brand.
Currently have my eye on a Perrelet myself.
Sadly it's not this one....

Well if its not that one, which one is it!?!
It has a big bum date, that's your tidbit of info until it's a done deal or panned as a no-goer.
I'm not much keen on diver watches, but I have been taken, somewhat, by the Seacraft, in blue or white – so that's creating a bit of a dither.

I love the black face Seacraft with the yellow accents.
Very cool - congrats.

Another fan here, these have been on my radar for a while, really like the poker edition with playing cards visible through the blades and the erotic version ;)
The crown handle is a really clever touch, theres a nice animation on youtube of it in pieces forming together, and fighter jets buzzing around, very cool.
I'm still enjoying my one and have no plans to flip it (which is rare for me!).
So clever my foot fell off.
Wow that's unusual, I really like that!
It was going to be this one, but I've decided it's not for me.
Some nice photos by its previous owner – Perrelet A1002 Big Date Small Second
